Social media users have speculated that Kash Patel may be a liverpool fan after the FBI’s newly appointed director was wearing a tie with the branding of the Mercestic Club. Liverbird in Mr. Patel’s red and white tie – was a mythical bird that serves as a prestigious symbol of Liverpool city and presents prominently on club jersey and other traders.
Mr. Patel was clicked on a tie during one of his confirmation hearing in front of the Senate. While Mr. Patel’s loyalty lies with the Republican Party, which has a conservative inclination, Liverpool is a socialist, working class club historically associated with the same ethos with fan base.
Bill Shankali, one of the greatest managers of all time is credited with establishing a fierce socialist spirit in the club, which has been carried forward by their predecessors such as Bob Paisley and in recent times, by Juragan Clop.
Social media reacts
As the post went viral, a part of LFC fans said that Mr. Patel’s political inclination did not align with the club, while the other expressed entertainment that he was a red.
A user said, “FBI director Maga is part of the administrator. He hate clubs like Liverpool,” a user said, “Hope he knows what the club is.”
One third remarked: “I wish he is a man. It is well documented that he is a red. I dared to try Mikel Artetta to do something strange.”
